Torquil Campbell and Chris Dumont aka Memphis return with their third full-length, Here Comes A City on Arts & Crafts. The duo has been creating music together since the late 90s, while both were still struggling artists living out their dreams of being in New York City and wanting to be in their very own band. This is another collection of exquisitely crafted pop songs that translates to music stunning imagery from everyday life.

Recorded over a three-year period in New York, Montreal, Seattle, Niagara-on-the-Lake and Vancouver, Here Comes A City is undoubtedly a nod to the song by Australian pop gods The Go-Betweens. It’s also an acknowledgment of the nomadic nature in which the album was made in light of both musicians’ schedules. While melodic beauty and unashamed lyrical romanticism remain the core components of Memphis’ music, Here Comes A City, like its title, is often dark and dense, troubled and distracted.
